Not that it matters anymore, but I doubt the Civic will look very scale sitting next to a Volvo 850 or Alfa 156 if it uses the longer wheelbase settings. That picture almost makes it look like an M-chassis.
In other news, I should be getting my FF-03 this week. Anxiously watching for the mail man....
I wouldn't get too hung up on side-by-side appearances... in the current standard lineup you have a BMW Z4, which is smaller than the Boxster that used to be available in M-chassis. Meanwhile, you currently have an Alfa MiTo in M-chassis, which is larger than the Renault Clio that used to be available in standard!
That Civic is sure to look tall on the track though. Quite an odd release in my view, it's not a JDM model, and it's not particularly well liked in Europe.
